Should Node-Unzip Have a Future?

I continue to be floored by the response to node-unzip. While the original implementation was written on a lark, I carried on as a means to better understand streams, arguably the killer feature of NodeJS. Since that time, I’ve changed companies, ceased personally using this library, and experienced a number of major life events, particularly becoming a father.

I also learned that the zip format is problematic and cannot be perfectly streamed – see this Apache doc. That said, if despite the major hangups as well as quality non-streaming NodeJS modules, such as decompress, there’s continued interest in this project, I’ll work to take the project to a stable 1.0.0, merge outstanding pull requests, and most importantly, seek collaborators who use this library in production.
